There are reports that the Galaxy Watch 4 update is bricking the smartwatch as soon as they are fully discharged. Serious problems make your smartwatch unusable because it won’t restart once it’s turned off.

Earlier, Samsung stopped rolling out the buggy update for Galaxy Watch 4 users and started rolling out this latest update with further improvements. At the same time, as users confirmed, it didn’t fix the problem with all units.
